ONEY AND COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE, CITY TWELVE O'COCK. There is an unusually activ , e demand for L mone y in the discou n t mar k et to•day, and the Bank mini mum of 6 per cent. is the lowest rate out of doors- In the foreign exchanges yesterday afternoon there was a slight upward movement. Since Monday last the imports of specie have amounted to £142,729, and the exports to £862,353. The Industrial Company of Central Italy requires a capital of £250,000 in 25,000 shares of £lO each, of which 16,000 have been already placed. The object is to provide the requisite means for developing industrial undertakings of undeniable commercial value in the locality embodied in the title, and operations are to be commenced by the development of extensive deposits of native sulphur, situate iu the Romagna, at present worked with considerable profit. The property is near the cele brated mines of the Bolognese Company, and con tiguous to the Central Italian Railway, and within a fen; miles of good seaports. Guided by the advice of practical judges the directors have pro visionally agreed to pay £89,000 for the concessions, together with all rights and privileges and plant. Not more than £5 per share will be called up till other works are entered upon, and the vendors 8110 W their confidence in the scheme by taking nearly one...half their purchase-money in shares, 'which are not to receive interest or dividend until 10 per cent, per annum has been paid upon the capi tal employed. The committee of the Stock Exchange have ap- Pointed Tuesday, the 26th of July, a special settling day in the London, Birmingham, and South Staf fordshire Bank (new shares), not to be officially quoted at present, those of the North Australian Co mpany, and those of the Land Credit Company of Ireland, for transactions entered into on and after May 20, to be marked in the official lists, and in those of the West Worthing Investment Company, and the Unazinto Plantation and Trading Company of Natal, to be marked in the twice a week list. The share list of the Oxford and Canterbury Hall Company (limited), closes on Tuesday next, the 26th inst. Two O'Loc. At Paris, thi s d ay, according to Mr. o Ren ter's telegram, the Three per Cent. Rentes were 66f. 10c. Shortly after the commencement of business this morning the Funds receded another 8 per cent., but there has since been a rally, a few buyers having appeared at the last moment. Consols therefore, after being 901 for money, and 904 1 for the account, again close at 901 9 respectively. The New Threes and Reduced Annuities are 891 Exchequer Bills, March, Bs, to 3s. die,, and ditto, Jule, ss. die, par.

LAW INTELLIGENCE—(This Day.) COURT OF DIVORCE. (Before Sir J. P. Wilde and a Special Jury.) MASTERS V. MASTERS, THE QUEEN'S PROCTOR INTER- VEN IN G. The Solicitor-General, with whom was Dr. spinks, ap peared on the part of the Queen's Proctor. He said this was one of those cases which showed the advantage of the Queen's Proctor being allowed to intervene to prevent the court being imposed upon by collusion between the parties coming to this c ,urt. It appeared that Mrs Masters in 1852 was married to Mr Masters, and they cohabited for some time. The petitioner prayed the court for a divorce on the ground of adultery and cruelty, to which the re spondent pleaded that she committed adultery with a gentleman named Osborne, who wee in business in the City. The jury found for the petitioner, and the court pro nounced a decree nisi. In the meantime information had been received by the Queen's Proctor which induced him to intervene to prevent the claim being made absolute. It was necessary to state that the respondent, notwithstanding the plea he had placed on the record, did not attempt to substantiate the charge against his wife. Mrs Osborne instituted a suit against her husband for dis solution of marriage, and she alleged with a female whom she could not identify, but who subsequently was discovered to be Mrs Martin, who was living in open adultery with Mr Osborne at No. 7, Priory, Kilburn. Mrs Masters had denied on oath this statement, which was founded on the evidence of disinterested and respectable witnesses. Mr Goodcop, the landlord of the house, and two female witnesses were examined, who clearly proved that Mr OA borne and Mrs Masters were living together as man and wife. There was no defence, The learned judge, in summing up, said that there could be no doubt that in this case there was a most gross impo sition attempted to be practised on the court, which in all probabability was not the first nor would it 1)a the last. He hoped the Solicitor-General would not allow the matter to rest here, but adopt some proceedings in this case against the parties who had endeavoured in such a flagrant manner to deceive the Court, He could not deal with them, as they were not before the Court. The jury immediately found that Mrs Masters had com mitted adultery with Mr Osborne, which was the only issue submitted to them, The learned judge then reversed the decree nisi. POLICE INTELLIGENCE—This Day, THAMES. A DA.NGEEOUS LARK IN THE HAYFIELD.—A well dressed man aged 24, and described in the police sheet as Charles Chatu, of No. SO, High-street, Whitechapel, boot and shoemaker, but who called himself Charles Chatu Barrett, of 25, Globe-road, Mile•Eod, on being asked by Mr Paget for his name and address, was charged with attempting to steal a silver watch from the person of Samuel iligham. Mr Maynard, clerk to Mr Beard, solicitor, defended the prisoner. The prosecutor said he was a merchant's clerk, in the service of Messrs. Werr and Co., of 28, Threadneedle • street, and residing at No. 1, Edward-street, St. Peter's. road, Mile-End. Last night at half-past 12 o'clock he went into the Hayfield public-house, opposite Charrington's brewery in the Mile-End-road. A friend with whom he had been spending the evening was with him. He was standing before the bar, chatting and drinking, when the prisoner, who was standing close to him, took his watch from his pocket. He told the prisoner to leave the watch alone, and said " That is mine " The prisoner said it was only a silver one. He repeatedly asked the prisoner to put back the watch, and he refused to do so. He called a police constable and gave the prisoner into custody. The prisoner was a perfect stranger to him. The chain of the watch was not broken. In cross-examination by Mr Maynard the prosecutor said he was quite sober. The prisoner did not say "This is only a silver watch. Why nut wear a gold one like this ?' He did ask the prisoner to make an apology for taking the watch, and as he refused to do so he gave him into custody. The prisoner was a perfect stranger to him. He did not exchange any chaff (ridicule) with him. Thomas Phillips, a police constable, 471 A, stated that he was passing by the Hayfield at one o'clock this morning, and the prisoner was given into his custody. He found upon him £1 19s Gd and a gold watch. He also took from the prisoner the duplicates relating to three other watches. One of them was pawned at Liverpool for £5. In cross-examination by Mr Maynard, the constable said the prisoner had been drinking, but knew what he was about. The prisoner first gave the name of Chatu, of High street, Whitechapel, and afterwards Barrett, 25, Globe road, Mile-end. He went to Globe-road, and found the prisoner did live there. Mr Maynard sAid the prisoner was a very respectable tradesman in partnership with another, and his name was Charles Chatu Barrett, although he only gave the name of Chatu at first. The primer was in the Hayfield drinking, and took the watch for a lark. Mr Paget—A very dangerous lark in the hayfield. Mr Maynard—l can assure you, Sir, it was done out of a drunken frolic. It was foolish, certainly, but I can assure you, Sir, it was only a foolish frolic. Mr Paget—A gold watch was found on him, and he has the duplicates of three others in his possession. Mr Maynard—They are his own watches, Sir. He can account for thorn very satisfactorily. Mr Paget remanded the prisoner for a week. Mr Maynard tendered bail for the prisoner. Mr Paget—Any two well known respectable tradesmen, I will accept as bail ; no others. The prisoner was then locked up. THE MURDER OF Ka, BRIGGS, STAFFORD, SATURDAY MORNING. Sir Richard Mayne's officer, on arriving at Staf ford, said the foreigner in custody on suspicion of being the murderer much resembled Muller, but that the means of identification were on the way to America.

Leamington and Warwickshire Haut 22 FRENCH ACADEMY OF SCIENCES. —At the last sitting M. Valz, the Marseilles astronomer, an nounced the discovery of a new comet by M. Tempel..---M, Leon Dufour presented a paper on certain new researches of his regarding the breathing and digestive faculties of in sects. —M. Chevreul communicated some remarks of his on M. Cloetz's analysis of the aeorolith of Orguil. M. Cloetz had shown that the meteorite in question contained water in a hygroscopic state, besides containing 8 or 10 per cent, of water in combination, requiring 200 degrees centigrade for its separation from the mass. He had further shown that the carbonaceous substance contained in the areolith was composed of gelatinous silica, soluble in a weak solu tion of potash; it was a homogeneous mass without any particular form, and resembling the humus constituting certain earthy substances, and its composition was not unlike certain varieties of peat and lignite. M. Chevreul observed that these results were highly intererting, and that the black substance in question resembles certain sands of the Landes, a sort of mould containing particles of plants, but that to those who wish to master the sub ject thoroughly, it is extremely difficult to admit any assi milation of that substance to peat or any other definite kind of matter. M. Cloetz had found 39 per cent. of mineral substances in the carbonaceous matter, so that its combustion was perfect in an atmosphere exempt from car bonic acid, and the ashes have no colour. In order to esta blish its similarity with the peat, M. Chevreul contended that comparative experiments must be instituted. Dr Claude Bernard related a curious case of poisoning by tobacco. A man had wrapped tobacco leaves all round his body on the naked skin iu order to smuggle the article across the frontier, but the perspiration caused by walking in hot weather gave rise to an absorption of the active prin ciples of tabacco through the skin, which led to dangerous symptoms.

FLOGGING GAROTTERS.—John Croudace and Thomas Allison, who were convicted at the assizes last WerA of garotte robberies at Sunderland, and sentenced, the former to five years' and the latter to ten years' penal s'avitude, with 20 lashes each, underwent the punishment of flogging at the County Prison on Saturday. The instru ment of punishment is described as of a formidable-looking nature, and was manufactured by a sailor, who is under going imprisonment in the gaol, expressly for the purpose. The cat is ingeniously composed of 9 thongs of stout leather, in each of which are 9 knots, and these being connected to a flexible handle, the power,wielded by strong hands, is terrific. At every stroke the knots cut deeply, making flesh and blood fly in ever direction. The prisoners were firmly tied up in a reclining position, the lower part of their shoulders ex posed, the higher and lower part cf their backs being protected by padding. The warders Hodgson and Allison executed their task with the skill of more practised hands. The officials of the glol were present, but the prisoners were kept in their cells. Hodgson and Allison alternately Inflicted 10 lashes on each of the prisoners, The first lash was received with comparative equanimity by each prisoner, but on the second the yell of deep and excruciating agony which burst forth is represented as indescribable. Their cries continued during the whole of the punishment, and these, together with the sight of the flying flesh and blood on the mangled backs of the sufferers, and the clotted skeins of the eat, made up a spectacle of horror overpower ing to those who witnessed it, When the punishment had been inflicted, the prisoners were taken down and removed to the prison infirmary in a state of complete prostration— indeed it is averred that neither of them could have received another lash without the greatest danger. Although the prisoners did not witness the punishment, they would hear the shrieks of the unhappy sufferers in their cells, and it is topunishment may have at salutary a ) lu h ta o r p y ed eff th ec e t c o o n nt t e h m ei p r la m ti i o a n ds o . thej)urhain cAroniek, BILLING SGATE.

The British Columbia Massacre, A letter from Vancouver Island, dated June 6, gives the following particulars of the recent mas sacre of settlers in British Columbia by the natives: On April 30 the man in charge ce the ferry on the Ho mathco River, on the Bute Road, was murdered without provocation by a small party of Chilcoatens, who had been engaged to carry provisions for the workmen to the front. The news reached Victoria early in May, but was disregarded as an Indian runeour,and no steps were taken in consequence. On May 11 Victoria was startled by the arrival of three men, two of them badly wounded, who had been picked up by a steamer while making their way in a canoe to this place. They brought the intelligence that the Chilcoatens, on the day after the murder of Smith, had surprised and killed all the workmen except themselves. Tim Smith, the ferryman, was an Englishman, who has been moving on this coast, since 1810 ; he was murdered at his owe place, many miles from any other white men. After he was shot the Indians dragged the body down to the river, and destroyed a part of the provisions which were stored in ha house, and con cealed the remainder in two caches. They also cut a large scow adrift, and chopped a small boat in pieces, thus cut ting off all communication with below. They next pro ceeded eastward 12 miles, to the place where the main body of the men were at work, and coming up with them on the next day, spent the evening round their camp fire singing Indian sings. Four of this party had been detached the day before by the foreman, and gone with him three or four miles further, where they camped again, for the purpose of blazing the line for the road makers to follow. At daylight the 12 sleepers were attacked by the Indians, three escaped. The man who got away unwounded was Edward Mosely, who was saved by his tent pole and canvas falling upon him while lying on the ground. He eventually crawled out, and under the shelter of some bushes reached the river, by which he allowed himself to be carried down until he was far away from the horrible scene. Peter Morrison, a Dane, was shot through the left arm, but escaped in a similar manner to Moseley, and joined him two or three miles down the river. Philip Buckley, the third survivor, had been struck while asleep in his tent, by an Indian, with the butt end of a gun, and, jumping to his feet, knocked his assailant down with a blow from his fist and rushed to his tent door. He was confronted at the entrance by a couple more savages, one of whom stabbed him as he raised his arm to defend himself. The wound was severe enough to cause him to swoon, and the wretches left him on the ground while they went into the tent to despatch a man named IJoffmeyer, a well-known hun'er on the Paget Sound, who has been roused by the scuffle. Buckley, whom they had left for dead, on reviving, succeeded in getting into the brush wood, where he lay until after noon. He then, with great difficulty and pain, made his way to the foreman's camp, Creeping on his hands and knees after nightfall, he got near enough to see the murderers crouching round the fires, feasting upon the provisions they had found. Giving up all hope of anyone but himself being left alive, ho retraced his steps and turned his face westward, on the bare chance of reaching the coast, At the ferry, to his great joy, he fell in with the other two sur vivors; and at last, after great difficulty, they managed all three safely to cross the river. Ultimately, with the help of one or two friendly Homathcos who took pity on them, they arrived at Nanaimo, on this island. The killed in that massacre were fourteen, without the ferry man. Their names were William Brewster, foreman, from Cornwall; Joseph Fielding, Derbyshire ; James Openshaw, Lancashire; Charles Butler, formerly of the Boundary Com mission, and at one time a broker in this city ; James Camp bell, Scotland; John Newman, England ; John Clarke, Eng land ; Bapteste Demarest, French Canadian, James Gaudet, a half-breed; John Hoffmeyer, Bavaria; Robert Pollock, Scotland ; Alex. Milan, Scotland, a blacksmith ; and George Smith, Scotland. Some et the bodies were dragged down to the river, and have not been recovered ; but Gaudet, Clarke, and Brewster were found horribly mutilated. Brewstoe's lett aide had been opened, and his heart and liver torn out ; and, it is said by the friendly Indians, eaten as a mark of their hatred and triumph over him as the chief of the party. The Chilcoatens, after these murders, went towards Benshee Lake, and more . than a fortnight after the first murders, and some days after the disaster was known here, viz,, on May 17, murdered four settlers, with whom they had hitherto been on the friendliest terms, at that place. Their names were Win. Manning, an Englishman, whose wife and children aro believed to be now on their way to this country; Malcolm M'Leod, a Scotchman; Mac- Dougal, a Scotchman; and Frederick Hamilton, an Eng lishman. The murderers having whetted their appe tite with blood, took the Bentinck Arm road for the purpose of- meeting Alexander M'Donald, another set tler at Banshee Lake, who was known to be on his way to his own place with eight companions. These men were met on the 20th by two friendly natives, who warned M'Donald, whom they knew, that his friends had been murdered and his house destroyed. His experience of the peaceable character of his Indian neighbours led him to disbelieve the story, and he continued his journey. Tue next day he was met at a place called Sutledne, 11 miies east of the Summit Ridge, and himself and his party (nine lives in all) murdered. M'Donald was a Scotchman, about 35 years of age, and had be .n hero since 1858, and was one of the most act;ve pioneers we had. The Chil coatens, after this deed, continued their course towards Bella Coola, where, there is reason to fear, every living being would be put to death some days before these lines were written. The names of the settlers at or near Bella Coola were Mr and Mrs Hamilton, Scotch settlers; their daughter, aged 14; the son, aged 11; Mr Taylor, Scotch ; Ignatius Noble, American; Barney Johnson; Mr Wallace, Scotch, the inspector of customs ; Mr Maddox, American; and Major Robinson, and one or two others uncertain. The writer believes that these frightful excesses can only be regarded as the commencement of a regular native cru sade against the whites. Naval and Military Intelligence, MALTA, July 18.-.'Her Majesty's steam ship of the line Revenge, bearing the flag of Rear-Admiral Yelverton, C. 8., arrived, accompanied by her tender, the steam gunboat Boxer, from the Piraeus on July 10.

Parker, command ing the last named ship. The evidence for the prosecution having been heard, the accused, assisted by Mr K. Harvey, of Constantinople, gave in a written defence, when, after due deliberation, the Court declared the charges only partly proven, and sentenced Lieutenant Patterson to be repri manded and admonished accordingly. The schooner yacht Gipsey, having on board Dr. Dawson and Mr White, left Malta on the 9th of July for Gibraltar. The Ottoman screw steam corvette Kars left Malta on her return to Tripoli, on the 13th of July.

This was an action brought by the plaintiff, the eminent theatrical scene painter, against Mr Pechter, the well known tragedian and lessee of the Lyceum Theatre, to re cover a sum of £136 ss, being the balance alleged to be duo to him for services rendered to th© defendant in his profes sional capacity, in the production of the tragedy of "Hum let" at his theatre. Mr Hawkins, Q.C., and Mr Shaw were for the plaintiff ; and Sergeant Ballantine and Mr Covantry were counsel for the defendant. It appeared that in the month of February of the present year the defendant sent for Mr Telbin and informed him of his intention to produce the tragedy referred to, with now scenery and effects, and he desired him to paint the former, and he was to be paid the sum of .L-100 for his services in this respect. Mr Telbin agreed to these terms, and some thing was said about the scenery being ready by the 201,h April, but according to the evidence ef the plaintiff he was unable w complete his work by that time, and that one of the reasons for that was, that Mr Fechter discharged his principal stage carpenter, a person named Baze, and em ployed a Frenchman named Gaudin in the same capacity, and as he could not speak English, and Mr Telbin could not speak French, they had great difficulty in communicat ing with or understanding each other, and that this caused considerable delay. It appeared that the scenery was not sent to the theatre until the 14th cf May, but ou the part of the plaintiff it was said that this was not of any consequence, inasmuch as Mr Fechter, who was to play Hamlet, met with an accident in the month of April, and he was ordered by his medical adviser not to perform for a month, so that if the scenery had been ready by the 20th of April it would not have made any difference, as the play could not have been brought out owing to the condition of Mr Fechter. W hile the work was going on, the defendant paid Mr Telbin £270 on anount, and it appeared that about the beginning of May he became very angry with the plaintiff, and wrote him several letters, in one of which he stated that he had lost £2,000, in consequence of his not having fulfilled his agreement to complete the scenery by the 20th of April, and which sum, he said, Mr Telbin's painting would never restore to him in cash ; and in another he stated that "if Mr Telbin's conduct in causing him to lose his money did not strike him with re morse, he was sorry for his conscience." The reading of these letters caused a good deal of laughter in the court, particularly the one containing the last mentioned observa tion, and another in which he requested him to come to his house and talk the matter over " over a pipe." The plain tiff, in his evidence, positively denied that he had cwr undertaken to complete the scenery by the 20th of April, and said that all be stated was that hs would endeavour to do so, and it appeared. that after the scenery had been delivered at the theatre, which was on the 14th of May, he went there for the purpose of putting a few finish ing touches to some of the scenes, which is always neces sary under such circumstances, and which according to the plaintiff's statement would not have taken him more than four or five hours to complete. and he was refused admis sion, and he was eventually compelled to bring the present action to recover the balance of his claim, he having, as he alleged, actually spent £290 out of his pocket for assistance and other matters connected with the work that he had performed. Sergeant Ballantine, in his address to the jury for the de fendant, said that he resisted this claim on the ground that the plaintiff had positively undertaken to have the scenery ready by the 20th of April, and that by failing to so, the defendant had sustained a very serious loss, as his object was to produce the play of " Hamlet" on the anniversary of the birth of Shakspero on the 23d of April, and although his accident might have prevented him from strictly carrying out his intention, still, if the scenery had been supplied at the time specified, the play might have been pro3uced much earlier than it really was, and on this ground he contended that having broken his contract, the plaintiff had already been sufficiently paid for the work ho had performed. Mr. Pechter was summoned as a witness, and his version of the transaction was, that the plaintiff positively under took to have the scenery ready by the 20th of April, but that it would require some extra exertions, and he said he agreed on that account to give him £too. He also said, that under ordinary circumstances he should not have paid Mr Telbin for the scenery a larger sum than £3OO, and he gave him the additional amount upon the consideration that the work should be done in a shorter time. He stated in addition to this that when the scenery was delivered on May 14 it was in a most incomplete state, and he was com pelled to postpone the performance for a week, and during that time he paid £7O to other artists to complete the scenery, and also had to pay the whole of his company a fortnight's salary, during which the theatre was closed, solely, as he alleged, on account of the plaintiff having failed to perform the contract which he had entered into. Baron Martin having summed up, the jury almost imme diately said they were of opinion that Mr Telbin had not made a contract to complete the scenery by the 20th of April, and they returned a verdict for the full amount claimed. The learned Judge said ha concurred in the verdict, but he could not help at the same time expressing his opinion that Mr Fechter had misunderstood the nature of the agreement that was entered into, at el that he had given his evidence as to the contract under this impression. A long and uninteresting right of wzy ease was then dis posed of before Mr Justice Willes, and this concluded the business of these ass zes. Theicommission jwill be opened on Monday at M rid. stone, where there are already nearly 60 prisoners for trial ; one of them is charged with murder, and there is also a case of conspiracy to cast away a ship. Most of the other cases tire of the ordinary description. LONDON GAZETTE.—Last Evening. WIIITEIIAIL, JULY 21.
